DESCRIPTION

A helper function to assist with connections when creating (New-HPOVProfile) or editing (Set-HPOVProfile) a server profile.

PARAMETERS

-connectionID [<Int32>]

Alias [-id]

The numeric identifier for this connection. Connections are normally numbered sequentially from 1 within each profile.

-portId [<String>]

Optional. Identifies the port (FlexNIC) used for this connection. The port can be automatically selected by specifying ‘Auto’ when creating the connection. 'None' is a valid portID for an unconfigured, and unmapped Connection. If you wish to specify the
specific port, the portId format is "[adapter_type_prefix] [adapter_id]:[subport_id]".

G7 only: For LOM ports, the valid portId prefix will be "Lom"

Gen8 only: For FlexLOMs, the valid portId prefix will be "Flb"

Mezzanine adapter prefix is "Mezz"

An example of a FlexLOM 1, FlexNIC 1a interface would be "Flb 1:1a". An example Mezzanine 2, FlexNIC 2c interface would be "Mezz 2:2c"
